Can someone please point me in the right direction of where to start a module to calculate the character-count of the customization, and to add a fee accordingly?

The two places you will likely spend most of your time will be in ProductVersions.ascx, AddToBasket.ascx and BasketBLL.vb.

You will also need to update the admin pages on the backend so that when someone creates a product they have a way to set how to calculate the characters. This may include:

- cost per character
- cost per character with minimum order value
- initial fee plus cost per character

You will also need to update all of the calls to the pop up where the user adds the text, to the invoice, and the checkout pages to show the detail of the cost.

I have seen a couple of people ask for this in the past and I have not seen an inbuilt control that can deliver this functionality yet.

I wish you the best of luck with this.

I've placed this project on hold as I'm trying to sort out technical issues with the site.

Thanks for your interest, and I will keep you posted once progress is maid.
